fisheuler | 1 year ago | on: How to build a $20B semiconductor fab

CHM(computer history museum) have conducted an oral history interview with TSMC found Morris Chang in 2007. Chang told his personal Odyssey in this interview, from inner China to Taiwan, studying and working at US, PhD application refused by MIT, but luckily he choose a fast rocket track in the industry, after he accumulated enough wealth, industry insight, connections etc... He returned to Taiwan to found TMSC, else is the story. Also he compared Asian and American engineering styles:

"I think the Asian engineers tend to be more methodical, they tend to be more studious, more orderly engineers; whereas, the U.S. engineers tend to be more innovative, but they tend not to be as methodical and orderly as the Asian engineers. ......

On the other hand, I also think that one group can accompany another group, you know. You can have an innovative group but not so methodical and so on, and then you can have a methodical group maybe not very innovative accompanying each other. "

My chats with colleagues suggest that: with the increase price of the new iphones and there're many more cost performance phones made by local companies(Huawei,Xiaomi...)they have no motivation to replace the old ones,even if they have,they will first consider a local brand.

Yeah,Xi's recent action is just like turn the clock back 30 years,not just more foreign media control,but also more domestic media control.Also,a teacher of East China Normal University(华东师大)just committed suicide yesterday night,despairing with those bad news broadcasting from our national CCTV for about 20 minutes.

I just misunderstand the meaning of the word "work".I intepreted it as a verb meaning dosn't operate normally. After reread other people's comment. I realized it's meaning : similar to the job.
